Toughened Glass Glazing

Toughened glass, also known as tempered glass, is a high-strength and durable glazing material that is ideal for greenhouses. It undergoes a special heat treatment process that enhances its resistance to impact, making it less likely to break or shatter. In the rare event of breakage, toughened glass crumbles into small, granular pieces, reducing the risk of injury. Gardeners and plant enthusiasts value toughened glass for its safety, longevity, and ability to provide a clear and well-lit environment for optimal plant growth.

Low Threshold Base

Elite Low Threshold Greenhouse Base

The Low Threshold Base is unique to Elite Greenhouses. It allows you easy access with wheelbarrows and wheelchairs without having to build a ramp. No more tripping over a greenhouse base when carrying plant trays as the entry is at ground level.

Door Handle and Key Lock

Elite Door Lock and Key

Elite Greenhouses now have a handy door handle to make opening your greenhouse easy as well as a proper key lock for security in your garden or on the allotment.

Integral Gutters

Elite Integral Gutters

You’ll find proper gutters on Elite greenhouses rather than narrow channels. These are more effective at gathering up rainwater for your water butt and less likely to get blocked up with leaves.

Diamond Shelving and Staging - Optional

Elite Integral Gutters

The superb Diamond shelving and staging is designed specifically to fit into Elite greenhouses. It’s rigid and hard wearing and built to last. The Staging is supported by cantilever bracing so there are no legs to get in the way. This leaves space underneath to grow plants, store pots and makes using the greenhouse for wheelchair users completely practical. Both staging and shelving can be colour coded to match your new greenhouse.
